Cartoon Network Dropping Gundam and Bebop?
Lhadatt was among several who noted unannounced changes in Cartoon Networks' anime lineup. It's easy to speculate that Mobile Suit Gundam and Cowboy Bebop were dropped because of Tuesday's terrorist attacks since each show has a fair amount of violence, but nobody really knows. You can see the evidence on Cartoon Network's Listings. Tonight, episode 5 of Bebop was scheduled to air: one of the best episodes, too.
And this is news because...?
You're using her as bait, Master!
Stuff that matters? To who?
Who fucking cares about faggot anime anyway? Except for Rob and the other Slashdot owners who still have a 5-year-old-like affection for cartoons, the rest of us don't give a rats ass.
By the way, did it ever occur to you that, with the worst terrorist attack in recorded history happening less than a week ago, you have more important things to worry about than the cancellation of what amounts to be a waste of television bandwidth?
GET SOME PRIORITIES MAN!

"Flight simulator made my kid become a terrorist!"
I don't watch much anime stuff. But I think its more out of respect for the victims and their families, not because they think it causes terrorism.
You guys still watch cartoons? Grow up!
note: "News for Nerds."
Aren't most of us a little old for watching the "Cartoon Network"??
Who watches the cartoon network??? Somebody needs to grow up.
I am ammused when good articles that are technical in nature are rejected and this crap gets posted. Who cares. Get a reality check Taco and the "in crowd" gang!! Go ahead mod me down for all I care. Slashdot has become just another controlled media source.
Hey, fuckhead, it's Taco's site. If he wants to post stuff about anime, he has every right to do so. And if he wants to muzzle anonymous pusbags like you, that is also his right.
You do not have the right to tell another what he may do with his property!

"What makes you think I care about your opinions?"
My fellow Americans (well, I'm not actually American nor do I live in America, but I can't resist a good troll), please hear my words.
Microsoft has gotten away with many things in their sullied past. The American public was quiet. They were finally being brought to justice by the Clinton administration, but the Bush administration let them off the hook. The American public was quiet.
Now, however, one of their many despised, crappy products, has directly led to one of the most horrific terrorist attack in recorded history. Microsoft must be punished for their realistic flight simulator software (er, except for the part about the ``building crash'' message).
Americans, stand tall and proud, be brave. I hear you, the world hears you, and the people who wrote the software that allowed the people who knocked those buildings down will hear from ALL of us shortly.
Who is with me, fellow Americans? DEATH TO BILL GATES!
Who the fuck wants to watch stupid cartoons.
Sorry but i'm not in the mood to watch any stupid hollywood chock-full-o-splotions crap at the moment. I don't want to watch any lame cartoons either.
If you can't get your fill of violence, join the army and go to afghanistan.
Flattery will get you everywhere on this site. Good post MatthewLovelace. Looks like your articles will get posted now.
You bastard. Do you have no compassion?
So your last name is Lovelace? I guess you suck cock? Taco's at least!
Are you in the mood to watch some fake hollywood shit? I can look out my window and see real distruction and it ain't cool. I don't wanna watch some over paid actor running around pretending to be a hero.
undoubtedly alot of you tech-heads went
to engineering school alongside alot of
dark skinned folks from overseas. alot of you
are probably their friends. now is the time
to put down the HP bluetooth and other goo gaws
and baubles for a minute and perform the duty
of actual journalists. I know it will be difficult
since slashdot has such an awful record as far
as using actual facts, but you know what?
CNN, CBS, ABC, and NBC all have pretty shitty records too.
they were saying 'the air force shot down the plane'
'the state department has a bomb outside' etc etc etc.
you really need to do something, you are the only ones that can,
where is the independent critical media free from
corporate bias, in our darkest hour, when
our friends are getting murdered by rednecks...
Damn straight. Those crash videos are gonna have a hell of a lot more effect than some completely unrelated cartoon animation.
Y'know... I can now read a handful of rot13 without having to translate it... things like "vs", "gur", oddly "ivbyngrq" and especially "QZPN".
I wonder if *I* will be seized as an "illegal circumvention device" if I get too good at reading it?

Well, fuck you then. I just hacked your website, maybe that'll teach you the compassion you need you fuckwit!
Why, I do believe he is really Matthew Graybosch, living at 1677 East Main Street in Waterbury, Connecticut. (Zip code is 06705, by the way, in case you want to send some hate mail.)
And if you feel the need to phone him, just dial (203) 757 4681! Or you could email on matthew.graybosch@cshore.com
Anyway, it would also allow us to preserve our history, both in our hearts and in our "visual arts". People will be able to look at images of the WTC without being so despondent.
Of course, the new WTC should be designed to handle a similar attack, and should have better escape routes, but otherwise it should look the same.
And the men who hold high places must be the ones who start
